I'm sorry Forgetmenot that you've had some bad days. Weird, I've had the shakes a lot lately too. I attributed it to another "symptom" of fibro. Seems like the list continues to grow, but I don't know if it is. I've also had SEVERE, can't get out of bed, fatigue lately. Or when I do get out of bed, I can't function. I had a day a couple of weeks ago that I was so fatigued and out of it, I didn't even get my daughter to school. She and I had a talk. She's 13 and I told her that I needed her help to make sure I get up to get her to school. Today is a little better. I'm still a little shaky in the hands, but not as bad and the fatigue is still there (just had a nap), but again, not as bad. Does yours seem to go with the fatigue or just always there in general?
2much4mealone, you can vent anytime on this forum. I've done my share. I'm so sorry you are having it rough. It scares me when people talk about thinking of quitting. From what you've indicated, you have a child who I'm sure would be devastated if anything were to happen to you. Please make some time to find a good counselor. We all need it at some time or another. I have used one and she was a godsend. She completely changed my life around with her support and guidance. Take life a moment at a time if need be, but continue to work on getting some help. There is life after fibro. I'm here to tell you the list of ailments and symptoms I have fill up a page, fibro, CFS, daily headaches, migraines, colitis, IBS, arthritis, degenerative disc disease, neurological pain, anxiety, depression, etc, etc. It took counseling to change my outlook. I have mourned the loss of who I was and embraced who I am now. I still have days where I mentally struggle, but I remind myself that they will pass. Please, please, please find someone to talk too. Make sure it's someone you connect with. If not, keep trying....
Hugs to you both...
